Electrical power generator

Claim 2

In an electrical power generator arrangement, said arrangement comprising a plurality of electrical generators said plurality of generators arcuately positioned on a stand, the shaft of each said generator having first magnetic means attached thereto, drive means for causing said generator shafts to rotate, second magnetic means on said drive means for coupling said drive means to said generator shaft means to effect the rotation of said shaft responsive to the operation of said drive means, said drive means comprising a first disk means, said first disk means having the second magnet means therein positioned to pass contiguously to the first magnetic means of each of said generators as said first disk means rotates, and each of said plurality of generators including a second disk means for mounting said first magnetic means to describe a first circle having a diameter equal to the diameter described by the first poles of said second magnetic means when said first disk means rotates and a second circle having a diameter equal to the diameter described by the second poles of said second magnetic means.

Claim 3

In an electrical power generator arrangement, said arrangement comprising at least one electrical generator, the shaft of said generator having first magnetic means attached thereto, drive means for causing the generator shaft of said at least one electrical generator to rotate, second magnetic means on said drive means for coupling said drive means to said generator shaft means to effect rotation of said shaft responsive to the operation of said drive means, said drive means comprising first disk means, said first disk means having said second magnetic means therein positioned to pass contiguously to the first magnet means as the first disk means rotates, compressed air means for causing said first disk means to rotate, said compressed air means comprising a source of compressed air, air cup means extending from the periphery of said first disk means for receiving and reacting to said directed compressed air, means for directing the flow of compressed air from said source toward said air cup means to force said first disk means to rotate, said second magnet means comprising a plurality of magnets accurately arranged in said first disk means, a first pole of said arcuately arranged plurality of magnets facing the outer periphery of said first disk means and the said second pole of said arcuately arranged plurality of magnets facing toward the center of said first disk means, the said at least one generator being mounted on a first stand, a second disk means mounted to the shaft of said at least one generator, and a plurality of magnets accurately mounted on the second disk means so that the magnetic poles of said plurality of magnets mounted on said second disk are located within a certain circle having a diameter equal to the distance between said first and second poles of said second magnet means, and said second disk means being mounted so that the magnets thereon are juxtaposed to the magnets mounted on said first disk means during some part of a circle described by the magnets mounted on said first disk means when said first disk means is operated to rotate.

Claim 4

In an electrical power generator arrangement, said arrangement comprising at least one electrical generator, the shaft of said generator having first magnetic means attached thereto, drive means for causing the generator shaft of said at least one electrical generator to rotate, second magnetic means on said drive means for coupling said drive means to said generator shaft means to effect rotation of said shaft responsive to the operation of said drive means, said drive means comprising first disk means, said first disk means having said second magnetic means therein positioned to pass contiguously to the first magnet means as the first disk means rotates, compressed air means for causing said first disk means to rotate, said compressed air means comprising a source of compressed air, air cup means extending from the periphery of said first disk means for receiving and reacting to said directed compressed air, means for directing the flow of compressed air from said source toward said air cup means to force said first disk means to rotate, said second magnet means comprising a plurality of magnets accurately arranged in said first disk means, a first pole of said arcuately arranged plurality of magnets facing the outer periphery of said first disk means and the said second pole of said arcuately arranged plurality of magnets facing toward the center of said first disk means, the said at least one generator being mounted on a first stand, a second disk means mounted to the shaft of said at least one generator, and a plurality of magnets accurately mounted on the second disk means so that the magnetic poles of said plurality of magnets mounted on said second disk are located within a certain circle having a diameter equal to the distance between said first and second poles of said second magnet means, and said second disk means being mounted so that the magnets thereon are juxtaposed to the magnets mounted on said first disk means during some part of a circle described by the magnets mounted on said first disk means when said first disk means is operated to rotate.

Claim 5

The arrangement of claim 2 wherein a plurality of generators are accurately positioned on said stand so that said first magnet means of said second disk describe a first circle having a diameter equal to the diameter described by the first poles of said second magnet means when said first disk means rotates and a second circle having a diameter equal to the diameter described by said second poles of said second magnet means.
